I cringed after I heard the first lax vowel in 'lindes,' and stopped listening altogether after they butchered 'mujeres.' Spanish is NOT difficult. It's a Category 1 language according to the Interagency Language Roundtable.

While I do believe Spanish is one of the easier languages for English speakers to learn, I can't help but think it's ease is a bit overstated. There are some grammatical concepts that can be very hard to master without having a true feel for the language. For example, it's quite a chore in knowing how to use the subjunctive mood and conditional mood correctly in numerous scenarios with considerable regional variation and recent simplification. Even native speakers make mistakes in these two areas.
